126 receiving treatment
Print Edition
ABOUT 126 people injured in last month’s deadly oil pipeline explosions in the eastern Chinese city of Qingdao were still in hospital, said local health authorities.
Among them, seven are in extremely critical condition, one is in critical condition, and 23 are in serious condition, according to Qingdao Municipal Health Bureau.
Ten injured people were discharged from the hospital earlier, the bureau said.
The Qingdao Mental Health Center has started offering counseling services to the injured victims since last week.
At 3am on November 22, crude oil began leaking from an underground pipeline operated by Sinopec in Qingdao’s Huangdao District.
The spill then flowed into the city’s rainwater pipe network, which empties into Jiaozhou Bay. Explosions ripped through residential and commercial roads in Huangdao at around 10:30am when workers were clearing the spill. The blasts have claimed 55 lives and nine are still missing.
